Default Re: WWHD? (Harrington)

First, cEV does not equal $EV. It would be lesser than $ev. So you start out with what you admit is a -EV bet (qq vs AK) and add to that the fact that your 'payout' in chips isn't 1:1 in terms of money, it makes it EVEN more -$EV. And we all like money, right?

Or to put it more simply, 'why would a book lie to a person.'

I don't see how you can rationally disagree with this, unless you are saying that villians RANGE is fairly wide, ie. maybe A9+, 22+, KQs, for example, or any two. Others have suggested it.

I personally don't think so. Educated opinons differ. I try not to think that my opponents are completely ignorant, perhaps that's -EV.
